K School (Teachers) Discussion 2 Brockwood Park, England
September 11, 1976

It is important to establish right relationship between yourself and the student. You cannot do this if you are sitting on a pedestal as a teacher and treating the students as though below you. Come off the pedestal and establish a relationship of mutual learning.

You and the student are learning together.

As a teacher, how am I going to convey this absolute freedom to the student?
